Need help.

I purchased the software BatchPhoto today.
I have lots photo need stamp the date and time. The BatchPhoto works Ok for add the date and time on the photo. However, I found out after processing, the original size was reduced 35%. For example, there is a JPG photo 2.55MB, after add the date and time , it come to 1.64BM. I would like to keep the original size. How can I do this? Anyone can help me ?

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for purchasing our product.

This happens because you save your output images as JPG/JPEG which is a lossy image format. This means some data will be lost each time you re-save the image. No matter if you save with BatchPhoto or Photoshop or any other editor.

There are two solutions to this problem:
1. In Step 3 select the Output Format as JPG, then click on Settings and adjust the Size/Quality slider to get an image size close to the originals;
2. Save your images in a lossless image format like PNG or TIF with much bigger file sizes.
